About the book
A new textbook showing beginners how to use the free programming language R for fundamental biostatistical analysis, graphical display, and experimental design. The book takes a simple step-by-step approach to give a good grounding in the use of R for undergraduate/beginning postgraduate biology students.
This text is supported by r code examples, data files and exercise answers.
